3rd Annual Kan Jam ClassicBoston 2017

Tuesday, August 22, 20176:00 PM - 10:00PM

Expect Miracles Foundation – Financial Services Against Cancer is excited to announce their 3rd Annual Expect Miracles Kan Jam Classic, a fundraiser for the Expect Miracles Foundation Scholarship! Young Professionals Expect Miracles (YPEM) will be hosting this fundraising event to bring financial professionals together for an exciting evening of friendly Kan Jam competition, great networking, and lively entertainment – all for a greater purpose, to raise funds for a cure.

WHY?

The money you raise for this event will support research at The Robert and Renée Belfer Center for Applied Cancer Science at Dana - Farber Cancer Institute and the Expect Miracles Foundation Scholarship, which is awarded each year to a student who is currently undergoing treatment, or has survived cancer.

HOW?

Teams of 2-4 people are asked to fundraise $500. That is just $125 per team member and matching gifts can count towards your fundraising goal! A team entry secures a spot in the round robin style Kan Jam tournament. After round robin, winner and loser brackets are created where teams battle for the Kan Jam Championship. Winner of the loser bracket is granted 3rd place in the tournament. The team entry also includes unlimited entry to the beer garden, on site activities, award ceremony, and event t-shirts for all players.

WHO?

You! Play on a team, enter as a free agent, volunteer, or come as a spectator ($25 spectator tickets are available via our website and may be allocated to a player's fundraising goal).

TELL ME MORE!

Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place Kan Jam teams. Players and spectators will all have the opportunity to win some awesome giveaways. Sign up with colleagues as a company team, or recruit your friends for a memorable night, and help Expect Miracles Foundation raise critical funds for the fight against cancer!

Sponsorships

Should inclement weather cause the 3rd Annual Kan Jam Classic to be held indoors, the tournament will take place using mini kan jam sets. Teams will play mini kan jam on classroom size tables for round robin and bracket rounds. For the championship, all furniture will be removed from the room and the championship will be played with standard kan jam kans and standard Expect Miracles Foundation rules. Thank you for your understanding.
